Engine oil OEM Toyota or MOTUL

If it\u2019s a Toyota it will run just fine even with chewing gum instead of oil, a Subaru will explode one mile past the due service mark.

See how much metal that 08 weight pisswater has generated after only 1.3k miles? Switch to 0w30/5w30 and you'll see a drastic reduction in wear. I know I did.

General rule of thumb for mqb cars is if it\u2019s stock, run stock spec oil. If it\u2019s tuned run 5w40. Personally we run Motul 8100 xcess gen 2 5w40 in 3/4 cars.

Forgive me but I’m confused. The Tundra doesn’t have two separate oil reservoirs that I’m aware of and I change my own oil. Also, for what it’s worth mines been flawless since 2022 and almost 40,000 miles (not that that is a lot but just saying).

I run Motul 10/30 in my motor, helps the piston slap on cold start from the forged pistons.

While I didn't own a 2018 (mine was 2013 hybrid -> 2022 prime), here's my short list:

Electric gives a huge increase in torque from 10-50mph

Mechanic told me the oil came out barely darker than it went in on the last change. ~80% electric miles

I'm using motul 5w40 8100 x clean and it's great on my m54b22. I'm loosing little to no oil between changes

I’ll do the 15k oil change soon with Toyota OEM 0w-16, which is made by M1 but has a much higher moly content than the regular retail M1 oil.

I use Motul V300 5w-40. Expensive oil change but no additive breakdown at 3k changes.

Re oil is shit it makes the engine feel like a generator.

Using motul 5100 15w50 since last 2 oil changes
